Thanks. It is in 44 special.

Better yet! The Ruger Blackhawk Flattops in .44 Special are about as close as you can get to Elmer Keith’s No. 5 in a production revolver…Bisley would be closer perhaps but I’m a fan of the standard plow-handle on my single actions.
 
I don’t particularly like the bisley grip. I changed the XR3 to the stainless XR3-red. It fits my hands better. Also fitted an old style hammer so I could fit it to the ears a little better. I ain’t sure if I like the flattop or the regular Blackhawk better. I had a 44 mag Blackhawk with the 4.6” barrel before this. I didn’t care for the unfluted cylinder. This I guess is as close to what I reckon I want. I carry it daily in a simply rugged sourdough pancake holster. I am comfortable with it and it’s as much a part of me as my daily knife. I feel naked without either one.

I am wanting to find a 357 short barrel Blackhawk with the 9mm cylinder. Just for fun I reckon.

I have a single six to match.

Me 2. ☹️
The double stack 1911's in 45ACP had the same "problem" or "issue" ... 🙄☹️
Oh well. As the old Sit-Com alleged .... "8 Is Enough" 😁 (but it don't hurt none to carry an extra mag or two ... or three ... 😊)

I have a couple of the Jericho 941 .45 ACP model... or MR Baby Eagle imports. Those CZ clones have the slimmest double stack .45 grips... not unlike a small frame 9mm CZ. but I love a Glock 41 or H&K USP .45 too... I use the medium beavertail backstrap. A G41 MOS with RMR and 16 rounds is pretty good. Baby eagle has 10+1 and a H&K has 12+1.

When I am going light and stealth, this little Sigg rides with me. I don't carry that jumbo congress very often, but it is interesting to me because I carried one just like it for 15 some-odd years every day and wore it out. It has four different pattern blades and that can be a huge plus to me. The 9 mm firearm is capable of really discouraging a bad guy, probably permanently, but not a terrible kicker in the hand. Love that little gun. I stopped using so-called 'defensive' ammunition in my several semi-automatic pistols because every once in awhile they would jam. I just stay with hardball and that ammo will play hell with an enemy just fine. If not, I have already lived a long and rewarding life.

Impressive compact pistol those Sig-Sauers, looks like it's got what it takes. Please mail me one here in Europe..😍☠️😻

The Böker Congress looks surprisingly well matched to this and gives a great idea of size.

Thanks, Will

Very nice looking! Gotta love nice wood and blued steel on a firearm. I belong to a few gun forums and one in particular has a running wood and blued steel pic thread. Thank you for posting this.

I have a hard time passing up a beautiful rifle or shotgun if I can afford it. I found that one at a local gun show 6 or 7 years ago and just had to have it.
